    3. I assume this will be St. Mary's Church of England and have my fingers crossed that someone has the fiche. I do have fiche for Bishops Nympton, Devon; Luccombe, Selworthy, Timberscombe, and Wootton Courtenay, Somerset; or Enford, Wiltshire. I also have numerous other fiche for tax rolls in Devon, Somerset protestation returns, wills in Somerset and Devon. Numerous CDs from Ancestry.com on about 12 different counties, visitations for Wiltshire and Somerset, Dorset muster rolls and tax, and a few others. I have been thinking of buying the Andover fiche but your kind thought inspired me so thought that I would ask!
